What makes the eggs Chinese-style

 I think you got the answer from @liuzhou but if I had answered you myself I would’ve simply said because I ate them with chopsticks. 😂

 Ha ha.  Thank you but you are giving me credit where I do not deserve it at the moment. I’m just using the same little dish over and over again so I don’t accumulate dishes that I have to deal with!  Serve, eat, wash, repeat.  

Good habit.   There was a family joke that one aunt could make a cup of tea and dirty half the pots, dishes and silverware in the kitchen while her sister could put on a dinner for 10 and have one tablespoon dirty at the end of service.    I soon learned which to emulate.

This was suppose to be tonight's dinner, but I made it for breakfast instead.

with mushroom gravy.

 

Oh yum! My kind of breakfast!! But it would always be leftovers for me. I wouldn't cook it in the morning. Actually, I'm a night owl so often my first meal of the day is after noon. But it would still be leftovers.

 Spam onigirazu with hot mango chutney. More breakfast than I usually want or need but I know what my day holds ahead and this is likely to be the only thing I’m able to eat until this evening.

Eating a big breakfast, then eating nothing until dinner, would probably be a good way for me to lose weight...but I'd likely lose as many friends as pounds!

Dahi Toast (Spiced Yogurt Sandwich) from Indian-ish by Priya Krishna with Ritu Krishna.  Tomato chutney on the side.  Surprisingly good.

During my AM walk yesterday, I listened to Priya and her mother Ritu making these toasted sandwiches on a Splendid Table podcast episode from back in May.  I couldn't quite imagine a grilled yogurt sandwich being anywhere near as tasty as grilled cheese so of course I needed to try it.  Made a quick trip to the Indian grocery store for curry leaves and a stop at Sprouts for a loaf of sourdough and I was ready to go.  I subbed in a hot red chili for the green chili called for and like the color.  I'll have to try again when I have the recommend condiments of ketchup and cilantro chutney.

 Poached egg on rye toast, three small tomatoes and a bowl of salt. (For those who are horrified by the salt, I saw my doc yesterday and I am borderline salt deficient — so there!)

That'll teach that hospital to only serve you pepper!

Hardly surprising after your saline deprived recent involuntary trip away from home.

 

Last time I fell into the quacks' hands, they put me on an unnecessary saline drip, while failing to salt anything edible. My requests for intravenous Guinness and seasoned food fell on deaf ears!

 Leftover grilled vegetables from lunch. I  reheated them and served them on some  rye  toast. I thought I had discarded all the nasty pieces of eggplant but apparently not. I ate around them.
